This sounds like the kind of place that would like to hang out in. It is cool that they are able to play the sporting events at a reasonable hour for you and they do their best to make the outcome a surprise for everyone. That is also interesting that they are so strict about the pool tables and equipment. I can totally understand where they are coming from though. I have been to enough pool bars over here to know what a overly used cue looks and feels like. I actually ended up buying my own at one point just so I could keep it nice.
